Tesla Accused Of 'Gaming' Rebates After Claiming 8,600 Sales In One Weekend


EV subsidies in Canada were about to end. Tesla then filed for over half of the remaining rebates in hours, leaving dealers furious.

The dealers are fighting back hard and have the attention of Canada’s Transport Minister Anita Anand, who said she was “disappointed” at what happened and has ordered a review. According to Automotive News, the halt is in response to the death of a worker at parts supplier Chuo Spring Co. Two others were also injured and now, operations on three lines at two plants will be suspended for the first shift on Monday, March 10. California has been the authority in setting emissions standards for years, pushing the U.S. and inspiring the rest of the world with its stricter tailpipe rules that encourage faster EV adoption.
